Hi Qasi,

Putting aside the TB glitch (which had diffferent effects in different places, it seems) I test with BBMAX or BT. It's 30/9.5 plus/minus all the time - less in peak hours. I suppose I should put the opened firmware on the HG12. Can you manipulate the SNR margin with that?

Thanks for the link. Using that, I got this report first attempt:

In your opinion, is there anything I should be doing with TCP Optimizer (Vista)? I hope not becasue I switch at will between VM & Infinity and in any case I'll be load balancing in the not too distant future.
